US Patent 11626002 Building security and emergency detection and advisement system

Disclosed are systems and methods for providing distributed security event monitoring. The system can include a central monitoring system and sensor devices positioned throughout a premises that passively detect conditions and emit signals guiding people on the premises when a security event is detected. The sensor devices can include suites of sensors and can transmit detected conditions to the central monitoring system. The central monitoring system can combine the detected conditions to generate a collective of detected conditions, determine whether the collective of detected conditions exceeds expected threshold conditions, identify a security event on the premises based on the collective of detected conditions, classify the security event using machine learning models, generate instructions to produce audio or visual output at the sensor devices that notifies people on the premises about the security event, and transmit the instructions to the sensor devices to emit signals indicating information about the security event.
